Protecting against animal biosecurity risks : the state of Canada’s preparedness / Kody Blois, chair.: XC12-1/1-441-15E-PDF

"Animal disease outbreaks can have important consequences for animal and human health, food security, and international trade. The World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) explains that increased volumes of people and goods travelling across borders, as well as shifting animal migratory patterns due in part to climate change, have created new pathways for animal health risks to spread more widely. The ability of governments to anticipate and respond to animal health emergencies is therefore a worldwide concern"--Introduction, page 5.
